UVLayout Professional licenses can be purchased in two different
forms: Dongle or Floating.

Dongle licenses are locked to a hardware key, a piece of physical hardware provided by us, that is plugged into a free USB port when you want to run UVLayout on that system. They are similar to Floating licenses in that you can unlock software on multiple workstations, but you have to physically move the dongle around to achieve this. One advantage though is that you can take the dongle anywhere, and so they will unlock software on a laptop that you take away from the office.

Floating licenses are locked to a server on a local area network, but from there can “float” to any appropriately configured workstation on that network. These sorts of licenses are suitable for larger companies where a number of people want to share one or more licenses. Floating licenses will only unlock software on a laptop when its connected to the company LAN; take that laptop home or traveling, and you won’t be able to run UVLayout.
